Itasca County counselor harbored, sexually abused 15-year-old runaway

A 15-year-old girl who ran away from an Itasca County mental health treatment center was sexually abused by an adult counselor who allegedly harbored the girl in her home, according to a recent state investigation report.

The girl was missing for nearly 2 ½ months last fall before Grand Rapids police discovered her in the garage of Marie Marna Booth, 27, a former counselor at the center.
